Celebrating 15 years in the industry, Emmay Entertainment — founded by Monisha Advani, Madhu Bhojwani, and Nikkhil Advani — is preparing to announce an expansive lineup of 15 new projects. The slate will feature a combination of theatrical films and streaming originals, marking a major milestone for the banner that has delivered acclaimed titles across both formats over the years.
Reflecting on the company’s beginnings, Monisha Advani shared, “Fifteen years ago, the three of us put our hands in our pockets and pulled out just ₹25 lakhs each. We invested that into this business and have watched it grow.”
Since launching with D-Day, Emmay Entertainment has built a strong and diverse portfolio of over 35 films and series, including Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway, Satyameva Jayate, Rocket Boys, and Freedom at Midnight.
Among the upcoming announcements is also a political action thriller directed by Nikkhil Advani, inspired by real-life events.
Speaking about the company’s sustained growth and industry relationships, Monisha said, “That reliability is why they keep coming back and why we enjoy an agnostic relationship with every platform and studio in the industry. We are incredibly grateful for that. Their belief in us has allowed us to build talent and create employment at a scale none of us ever dreamed of.”
She further added, “Ultimately, this isn’t just about 15 titles coming out of Emmay but about 15 projects featuring fantastic talent, working in an industry where we must never forget our collective responsibility to create sustainable employment.”
Meanwhile, Emmay Entertainment is also awaiting the release of its upcoming period drama The Revolutionaries, created and directed by Nikkhil Advani. The Prime Video series is based on Sanjeev Sanyal’s book Revolutionaries: The Other Story of How India Won Its Freedom and explores a lesser-seen chapter of India’s freedom struggle through the journeys of young revolutionaries who believed armed resistance was necessary to challenge British rule.
The series stars Bhuvan Bam, Rohit Saraf, Pratibha Ranta, Gurfateh Pirzada, and Jason Shah.
